Access to education is shrinking worldwide, especially in marginalized communities, while the church urgently needs compassionate, well-prepared leaders. Your gift to GBHEM helps meet both challenges.

For more than 275 years, United Methodists have upheld education as a tool for justice, dignity, and transformation. Today, GBHEM continues that mission by equipping emerging leaders and expanding access to theological and higher education.

Why Your Support Matters

Education transforms communities:

• Reduces poverty and increases opportunity
• Promotes health, peace, and stability
• Forms principled leaders grounded in faith and service

Your generosity keeps these opportunities within reach for students and future clergy around the world.

Your Impact

Your gift builds a global network of faithful, creative, and courageous leaders who will strengthen congregations, serve vulnerable communities, and transform the world.
